Woodo
Exactly what it looks like. A 3d coloring book about childhood stories. Cute little game that it's all about the vibe and having a relaxing moment putting cute dioramas together and seeing the story unfold.

Radio the universe
Ngl, I don't even know what this game is about and tbh, I'm not even sure the game wants you to know, but that's the great part
Visuals are dope, interface is quite obtuse, challenging... You'll feel lost and you'll be there for exactly that

Altered Alma
I was expecting a more complex combat and some platforming here and there but it was actually the opposite. Platforming got quite intense in some parts while combat remained pretty simple (at least in the demo)
Still, it peaked my interest enough

Fell in love with the vibe of this game the first time I saw it and it didn't dissapoint. The character feels really heavy, making every trick have its own weight and inertia. The visual aspect is just impeccable and the music is amazing.

Frenetic fps with an incredible y2k aesthetic in which movement is key. The faster you go the more damage you deal, the multiplier gets bigger and your accuracy improves. Tricky at first but when it clicks you feel the rush and lock tf in

Omg, you working on this makes so much sense now! I played the demo a while ago and I knew there was something familiar about the looks of it.
Congrats and good luck with the release!!! 🥳🔥💕

Vito @betweencolossi.bsky.social · 10d

While doing a Mesmer fan art a while ago I could only think of two things. 1) babygirl, and 2) what kind of Clover is this?
Seeing a messed up but cute redhead babygirl and immediately thinking "Clover". That's your legacy now and I think you should be proud lol
